An extra £20m over the next 10 years is to be invested into Tyisha, Glanymor and Llanelli Town Centre as part of the UK Government’s Pride in Place Programme to help rebuild community spirit and give local people a sense of pride in where they live and work.
A new Neighbourhood Board is being established to oversee the project and is looking for an Independent Chairperson – not a politician or a ‘usual suspect’ – someone with drive and enthusiasm for Llanelli whom we can all unite behind.
The Chairperson will play a pivotal role providing clear, inclusive and transparent leadership, working constructively and ensuring decisions are community led, fair and aligned with local needs.
Key attributes include being:
- Fair and balanced, ensuring all voices are heard
- Good at facilitating conversations, particularly when differences of opinion emerge
- Open to learning, feedback and development, and an interest in mentoring and upskilling others
- Welcoming, open and listens deeply to others
- Calm under pressure and manages conflict well
- Has time to prioritise the role
